A member asked:
Is enlarged lymph nodes a usual symptom of sporotrichosis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not usually: The disease is caused by an infection of a type of fungus. It usually involves the skin and lymph channels but not the lymph nodes. I recommend speaking with your physician to have an evaluation of the area in which the lymph nodes are located to see if further evaluation is warranted.
